The VideoLAN Forums

Hi

first of all, thanks a LOT for this great player !


some of you may know the Playlist File Remover plugin for Winamp,
which allow you to move a file you are playing to the Recycle Bin with a shortkey, or even with a Global Hotkey
or to move it to a specified directorie etc etc...
And at the same time, to switch to the next playlist entrie

I think it would be great to see this kind of feature to delete a video you are watching of your hard disk (send it to Recycle Bin) by using defined Shortkey (as they are not yet global hotkey in VLC, and 'cause it's useless for this kind of operation, it's not like playing music in background)


really it would makes VLC damn more powerful and useful
to delete thoses numerous crapy video (which is btw the biggest media files) of your poor Hard Disk


Thanks

And what about those Linux users without trash can?
Typo could be very costly on such cases.

so just move it to a defined folder
or directly delete it from the hard disk

no more comments on this idea ??

it seems so much important to me

It is very easy to add, maybe Windows only and you have to enable it (so disabled by default). It is just a very low priority (it still requires testing and so on) to add features for one/few person(s).

Hi

is there really nothing new about this ??

is it part of the 0.9.0 project ???

or could it be made as a plugin to add or not ??


I really really miss this feature so much


btw a shortkey to display more infos on the video would be great too (such as video size on HDD for example)

thanks

I'll see what I can do. I don't like those kind of features, though

thanks by advance !

really hope this will be available by a way or another =)

Hi

just asking for news,
would like to know if this is still on the to-do list, or if it has been add or just ignored
I Really really miss this feature so much

thanks and keep up the good work

Yeah, this is a very good idea!

It would be a very practical and fast way to delete crappy videos.
